Roasted Kabocha Squash image

The farmers' markets are full of beautiful fall squash; right now, our favorite is the kabocha squash. It has rich, firm flesh that's not watery. We prepare the squash like we would prepare meat to concentrate the texture and flavor.

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 medium kabocha squash
1/4 preserved lemon rind
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut the squashes in half horizontally. Scoop out the seeds and discard. Dice the preserved lemon rind.
